SWI-Prolog interface to R

This package provides library(r_session) that allows for communicating
with The R Project for Statistical
Computing. This package has been developed
by [Nicos Angelopoulos](mailto:nicos.angelopoulos@gmail.com) and has
been part of the SWI-Prolog default packages for several years as
library('R').

This library has been superseeded by the real
pack, which provides a much
faster and robust interface to R by embedding the R dynamic library in
Prolog using the foreign library interface. Still, the process based
approach can come handy:

It may be easier to install (depending on the platform)

It can run R on a remote computer that provides more resources

Multiple R engines may be created and destroyed.

On some platforms, R cannot open graphical windows when embedded
in Prolog.

Documentation about this pack is in doc/r_session.html and a simple
demo is in examples/r_demo.pl.
